It's all in a name. Here are 15 eye-catching menu items from various Upstate New York restaurants. Owners and chefs work long and hard to draw your attention to these sometimes simple food items but, admit it, they are always a little tastier when they come with a catchy moniker. Have you ever seen (or eaten) a cleverly named food selection at a restaurant? If so, please share it!

A great restaurant located in a (what else?) restored 1912 Rochester fire house. Carrying the fire house theme to the max, it is no surprise then to find a Fireman Burger, some Brushfire Pasta and even some Firehouse Nachos and Dispatch Chicken. But the Arson Pizza was the one to catch my eye. Arson, the bane of fire personnel everywhere! The Arson Pizza is topped with Italian sausage, pepperoni and grilled chicken.

Very popular and unique deli in Lake Placid, they feature a whopping 46 different sandwiches, each named after one of the 46 high peaks in the Adirondacks (4,000 feet or higher). You order them by number, ranked by height. How can you resist No. 29, the Upper Wolf Jaw Sandwich, made with egg salad and sprouts (Wolf Jaw Mountain is in the Keene Valley and rises 4,173 feet). Other sandwiches include the No. 32 (Sawtooth Mountain), No. 28 (Esther Mountain), No. 5 (Whiteface Mountain) and No. 1 (Mt. Marcy, New York's highest mountain at 4,864 feet).

One of the most serene and beautiful places for lakeside dining in Upstate New York is the Blue Mingo Grill. Located at the water's edge of royal blue Otsego Lake, it is the epitome of casual dining on a gorgeous summer day. But then your eyes scan down the menu and BOOM ... there it is. Larry's Death Dog! Wow, it seems so out of place listed alongside Sammy Sailor's Tuna and a Caribbean Mango Shrimp Wrap. The Death Dog (described as a "slightly suicidal taste sensation) is a bacon-wrapped hot dog stuffed with cheese. Poor Larry!

Nobody does the 1950s car hop diner shtick quite like Bokie's in Malone, N.Y. All decked out in nostalgia pink and white stripes, this drive-in boasts chrome and leather counter stools, foam rear-view mirror dice, an old-fashioned jukebox and a plethora of teen idol photos on the wall. The menu adheres to this theme with barely a blip. Go back in time with a Studebaker Burger, The Elvis (peanut butter and banana sandwich), or an old fashioned James Dean ice cream soda. Being a baby boomer myself, my eye locked firmly on the '57 Chevy Burger, which is a burger topped with mushrooms and Swiss cheese. Can somebody say Happy Days?
